Video reveals the Colts head coach condemning Gardner Minshew for a play that ended the season.
There is more light on the dramatic climax to Indianapolis’ season-ending loss to Houston thanks to television footage.
Heartbreakingly, the Colts’ dreams of qualifying for the NFL playoffs were dashed on Saturday night.
With the victorious club moving on to the postseason and the losing team returning home to try again the next year, the regular-season finale functioned as a de facto playoff game.
The Colts lost their Week 18 game against the Texans 23–19, despite a great effort. They missed a last-second chance to win and secure a postseason berth.
Late in the fourth quarter, trailing by six points, Indianapolis made a whole drive to the Texans’ 15-yard line, setting themselves up for a crucial fourth-and-1 that would tie the game and save their season.
Regrettably, a turnover on downs resulted from Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew’s inability to complete his pass to reserve running back Tyler Goodson.

NFL Insider’s omission in Travis Kelce’s tight end stat is criticized by Greg Olsen.
The Colts coach Shane Steichen was panned by television cameras as he responded to the play.
Steichen was seen on camera reportedly telling Minshew, “That’s on you; we had it.”
When reporters questioned Steichen about the play decision following the game, he was more tactful.
“It didn’t work out the way we had the play up, the look for it, and man-to-man coverage,” he stated.
